"Sir, are you trying to protect her? She's obviously trying to defend herself because she was the culprit!"

"Yeah! She can't be that stupid not to hide her face while committing the act." Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

No one had expected Shaun to just brush it off like that when the proof was in the surveillance video. Based on their reaction, they would not rest until they saw Melody punished. "What's all the ruckus? Has today's filming ended?" came a man's voice.

The familiar voice drew Melody's attention, and she turned to see Lucas approaching them. He walked with a leisurely gait, and everyone around him seemed to make way for him without being asked. Melody wanted to pretend that nothing happened, but she felt a bitter taste in her mouth when Lucas came over and asked, "What happened?"

"Nothing," she said hoarsely, shaking her head. Those who seemed to want her punished ceased their efforts and were well aware of Lucas' identity. None of them wanted to get on Lucas' bad side after seeing how close he was to Melody.

"You wouldn't have kept me waiting that long if nothing happened. Did you forget that we were supposed to have lunch with my grandparents today?" Lucas said.

Melody glanced at him and did not quite remember when they made that arrangement. However, Lucas' firm gaze led her to believe that she must have forgotten all about it. "I'm sorry I forgot about it. I was ou the whole morning, and something did happen when I returned to the set."

Lucas ignored the rest of the crew and focused his attention on Melody. "Have you dealt with it, then? If you have, let's go."

Shaun felt a little awkward. He had promised Lucas that he would take good care of Melody, and the incident involving his crew members had put him in a tight spot.

Melody kept quiet. She meant it when she said that she was willing to go to the police station and cooperate with the investigation, but that would make them late for lunch with their grandparents.

"I see, so I take it the matter hasn't been resolved yet. Let me hear what happened, Shaun. I want to know why my woman has to waste her time here with everyone," Lucas demanded curtly. Shaun bit the bullet and explained everything.

The crew members were appalled to see their director, Shaun, becoming so meek in front of Lucas.

In the meantime, Melody's attention was focused on the phrase 'my woman'. She wondered what Lucas meant by that and unconsciously raised her head to look at his face. It was a mystery how he had a knack for frequently showing up whenever she needed help. Perhaps that was god's way of looking out for her.

"There was a bit of friction between the cast members. Tracy, who plays the second female lead, was injured by a thumbtack that was placed in the shoe that she is supposed to wear for her role. We checked the surveillance footage and discovered that the perpetrator was wearing the same clothes as Melody."

"Is that why you think Melody did it?" Lucas summed up the information he had been told about.

Shaun could immediately tell that Lucas was incensed.
